Android Cosmetic Gene Patches

An extremely simple mod to patch other gene mods for compatibility with VRE: Androids, specifically to get mostly-cosmetic genes working on androids.

Currently patches:
AFU's Cosmetic Gene Expanded in it's entirety (Thank you for using abstracts to build stuff, it makes my life so much easier!)

Biotech Expansion Mammalia is almost completely covered, but I purposely left out the instinct and stuff.

Biotech Expansion Mythic is heavily dependent on custom resource system, so almost half of it got left out, however your androids CAN look like dragonkin.

Outland Genetics is organized beautifully using proper Abstracting and everything, I did NOT make Auras compatible as they are not strictly cosmetics and I don't really have the necessary knowledge to strip them of effects while maintaining everything else. Everything I edited should be working, however I don't use anything Outland so let me know if I misjudged something.

Anthrosona wasn't quite as pretty, but darn near, I was able to hook into their Abstracts as well for quick patching, it should even propagate to future updates unless they change their definitions structure.


All this does is replace the custom categorization used by the authors with a simple Cosmetic tag that VRE: Androids grabs and handles as normal. Anything that uses Archite Capsules appears to be immediately disregarded, so keep that in mind.

If you have a cosmetic mod you want patched, let me know and I'll take a look, but know that some mods use more complicated handling methods that might put the work required outside of my limited knowledge.
